More fecundity.
I love how incredibly bored and grumpy she looks.

Not impressed with his technique LOL!! Excellent, I have swarms of these in the yard at the moment, they can be a pest more so that the bog standard house fly.
Don't they always look like that ???? I hope she's on the pill. Super shot Andrea.
You always know where to find the action!!!
Cool shot Andrea :)
Fantastic observation and shot, yes she does look a bit grumpy maybe it was a first date and fancied only sharing some rotting carcass on a hot day with him.
I remember a father's explanation to his daughter after she saw two dogs mating. "The dog in the back hurt himself and the dog in the front is helping by carrying him on her back." So, maybe? This is one of your better captures of the 'filthy act'.
Wonderful and interesting capture You really should create that coffee-table book of all your photos of insects mating you'd probably make a mint
Beige! I think I'll paint the branch beige.
Yes, I saw immediately that she looks less than impressed, isn't it fun anthropomorphizing? Great capture!
LOL! He doesn't exactly look like Mr. Passion himself! :) Perhaps they were upset that their privacy was being invaded by a giant lens. "Oh great, Horace! We're going to end up on YouTube!" Kidding aside, a great capture here! Excellent work!
OH MY! I had great laughs in here. The comments are so hilarious :))))) Awesome shot Andrea :-)
Superb capture Andrea. God bless.
That's one way to catch them still and not flying away - when their minds are on "something else". Love the "frowns" on their faces, lol. Great shot, Andrea.
They should just 'get a room'!
Great timing with this capture and they both look grumpy to me!
Yes (ala your description), she does look bored and grumpy. But her lover isn't exactly Cary Grant. It would've been great if you got her reading the Times---that's gotta hurt her lover. I see all your insect shots, and I am amazed at the positions and pov's you get with these small creatures. This one must take a lot of years of studying and photographing insects to be able to spot and shoot. It's a marvelous capture. You could title it, "you DONE yet???" Terrific eye to capture this.
